| CANDIDATES RESPOND TO DAV QUESTIONS |
The Disabled American Veterans sent President George W. Bush and Sen. John F. Kerry the following questions:
- Mandatory Funding for VA Health Care: Do you support a fundamental change in the manner VA health care is funded? If so, how would your administration ensure its implementation? If not, why?
- Disabled Veterans Tax: Do you support provisions of concurrent receipt to veterans rated 40 percent or less and will your administration actively work to bring it about? Why or why not?
- Do you support elimination of the phase-in period for concurrent receipt? Why or why not?
- Making Veterans a National Priority: What specifically will your administration do to make veterans a national priority?
- Will your administration propose or support legislation to authorize VA to revise its premium schedule for SDVI to reflect mortality tables?
- Will your administration propose or support legislation to increase the face value of SDVI?
- Will your administration propose or support legislation to authorize concurrent receipt of SBP and DIC?
